Pros: Other teams think its shaved because it hits that well. It is stupid hot when broken in. I have over 900 hits on this bat with more then 250 home runs. Love this bat! Has flex like the old Jug. Started to web up around 500 hits. Looking to get a couple more. Would recommend for people with slower swing speeds.

Cons: None.

New for 2013! The Juggernaut has returned! Known as one of the hottest ASA bats to ever hit the field, the newest Juggernaut certainly lives up to expectations. Constructed from DeMarini's premium TR3 F.L.O. Composite, the J3 gives players a strong, lightweight hitting zone with an end-loaded swing weight. But that's not all. The two-piece J3 features DeMarini's Half and Half Technology that, when coupled with TR3 F.L.O. and a Stacked DoubleWall design, creates the largest, most responsive sweet spot in the industry! Half and Half also silences feedback on off-center hits, while the Stacked wall design gives players the most power even when they don't make ideal contact. Half and Half works by flexing before impact and recoiling with a burst of ball-launching energy! The J3 features a Big D end cap that helps keep the barrel stiff and force power directly to the giant sweet spot. The end of the barrel also features a Rotation Index to help achieve an even break-in and allow players to get the most from the ultra-responsive TR3 F.L.O. Composite. On the other end, the handle of the J3 is wrapped with a two-piece Hybrid Comfort Grip that is built for ultimate comfort and tack. DeMarini: Born Hardcore! The J3 features the new ASA stamp and is approved for play in ASA and ISF only. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

I'm looking for a bat for the .44 CORE balls. Would this be a good model?

Answer Question

The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 Slow Pitch bat features the new ASA stamp and is designed to hit the new ASA .52 CORE softballs. If the bat is used with the .44 CORE softballs, it becomes more susceptible to cracking. Any bat that features the 2004 ASA stamp would be designed to hit the .44 CORE softballs.

54205

Our league uses .44 COR, 375 COMP balls. Will they be OK for use with this bat?

The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 Slow Pitch bat features the new ASA stamp and is designed for use with the new .52 or .50 COR softballs. Using the J3 with the .44 or .47 COR softballs will cause the bat to be more susceptible to cracking.

50993

Can you explain the concept behind two-piece vs one-piece construction? I have concerns for two-piece longevity after reading reviews of both this bat and the Miken Triad. $300 bats shouldn't crack.

The main difference between one-piece bats and two-piece bats is that one-piece models are developed as one continuous piece of metal as opposed to being pieces bonded together. Two-piece models are created in two sections, a barrel and a handle, and then those two pieces are bonded together. The main advantage for a two-piece bat is to reduce vibration for the batter's hands. Bats do play a violent role in the game of softball and baseball, and take a lot of impact. Even $300 bats like this 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 can crack. That's just the nature of the game. Manufacturers realize this fact, which is why they typically offer full warranties on their bats.

50434

Is the J3 fully end loaded or is it mid loaded? It will make a difference for what size I will get?

The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 Slow Pitch is going to be a fully end loaded bat.

50145

Is the DeMarini J3 made in the USA?

Currently, I am not sure as to if the 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 Slow Pitch bat is made in the USA. Here is DeMarini's phone number if you'd like to give them a call: 1-800-937-2287.

48748

Can this bat be used for the 44/375 or the 40/375 balls?

The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 was produced under the new ASA standard and is designed to perform better with the softer compressing softballs ASA is now using. It can be used with harder compression softballs, but the bat will run a great risk of cracking.

48100

My team has a lot of single and double guys. We play in a USSSA league that uses the dimpled ball, how will this bat hit those balls? Also we play ASA tournaments, how will it hit those balls?

The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 Slow Pitch is not approved for play in USSSA leagues. It should handle the ASA tournaments with no trouble.

47680

Does the J3 hit the new ASA balls?

Yes. The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 is designed for use with the new ASA softballs.

47320

Are there any temperature restrictions identified by DeMarini for this bat?

DeMarini recommends you limit the use of their composite bats, like the DXNT3, in temperatures under 55.

45632

Is this new ASA stamp a "100 MHP" standard or is it still "98 MPH"?

The new ASA standard is tested with a ball thrown towards the bat at 105 mph to allow the exit speed of the bat to remain at 98 mph. You can find the rule update at the following link: http://www.justbats.com/blog/index.php/3226/asa-rule-update.

44698

Got it on Friday and put 30 swings on it. The shell started to peel. Is this a defect or should I expect this on replacement?

The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 Slow Pitch bat has had good reviews. Every bat will acquire marks and rubbed paint as it gets used. If your paint is peeling it should not affect the performance of the bat. You can, however, return it if you would like. The bat has a full 12 month manufacturer's warranty through DeMarini.

42945

Is the J3 more comparable to the J2 flyswatter or the J2? i feel like the J2 flyswatter was a better bat

The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 will be most similar to the J2 Flyswatter in terms of performance and overall feel.

40688

How much weight is in the end of the bat? 0.5 oz. or 1 oz.?

The 2013 DeMarini J3 has close to a full 1 oz. end load.

39776

Does this bat have a composite handle or alloy? More weights coming soon?

The 2013 DeMarini J3: DXNT3 is a two-piece, full composite bat. More sizes will be available within the next 2-3 weeks.
